What is a Charter School?
Publicly funded yet operating with greater autonomy, charter schools differ from traditional public schools by having more flexibility. They are founded through a charter, which is a performance contract specifying the school's mission, programs, goals, and assessment techniques. Their purpose is to promote innovation and offer diverse educational choices suited to their community's unique requirements.
